A Houston judge has scheduled a February 18, 2026, trial date for one of the final civil lawsuits against Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson , according to court records obtained by USA Today.

The case is one of two remaining suits tied to allegations that Watson engaged in sexual misconduct during massage appointments in 2020 and early 2021, when he was a member of the Houston Texans.

In all, 27 women filed lawsuits against Watson. Twenty-four were resolved with confidential settlements, while one was withdrawn shortly after being filed in 2021. Another has remained dormant for several years. The case now assigned for trial was filed in October 2022 and accuses Watson of pressuring a woman into oral sex during a massage at the Houstonian Hotel in December 2020.
